Police State

Former NSA agents are starting businesses all over.
"The constant back-and-forth of employees and contractors to the NSA and the private sector and back to the agency is of enormous benefit to the NSA. It is one way to get a sense of what others in the private tech sector are building and doing."
And it gives them tons of back doors.
"Much has changed since the 1950s, Bamford said, and pointed to three of the NSA’s most recent colossal failures: the inability to detect “Underwear Bomber” Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab in 2009; Pakistani Times Square bomber Faisal Shahahzad in 2010; and the bombing of the 2013 Boston Marathon by two terrorists from Dagestan, one of whom was killed by Boston-area cops.
“The NSA is focused on what [ex-NSA Director] Gen. Keith Alexander called ‘collect everything,’” Bamford said. “You can’t possibly have the ability to analyze it all.”"
Exactly.

While most companies are trying to increase data security, Apple removes encryption from email attachments. NSA thanks Apple.

Company swears cops to silence before allowing access to its license plate location database. Like that will work.
